Experiences

Mark, Midlands, UK: “The whole experience is fantastic from start to finish. Great fun, professionally handled and a warm welcome (and shower) guaranteed. Test your skill at a quiz or two, or get them fantastically wrong and enjoy the consequences. Either way the result is a day you’ll never forget”

Ben, East England: “This experience was amazing and everything I’ve ever wanted!

I’ve always wanted to get gunged in a gunge tank so I did some research and found out about splathq. I popped an email in querying about a gold session. I got a quick response from Pete and booked my private experience with ease.

A week before my experience Pete sent over an email confirming everything for the day and asked to confirm some bits from my end, very professional and another quick response. The day before Pete got in touch again with a courtesy text which was also very nice and professional.

On the day I arrived and Pete showed me to the famous gunge tank where I’ll be for the day and then to the bathroom to get changed for the interview.

The interview really helps to calm your nerves and at the end you get your first gunging which just felt amazing and nothing like I’ve ever experienced before, I was covered!

The rest of the games were really fun (which I did manged to “win” one of them but still ended up gunged!). Each game ended up leaving me very messy and laughing throughout.

The splat storm was the one I was most excited about as I had never seen it before so wasn’t fully sure what to expect. Safe to say it was by far the best part of the day and I was made into a work of gungey art! The constant stream gunge was just amazing.

Overall this was an amazing messy experience and Pete is lovely, professional and very organised. I highly recommend going and also getting it recorded as its brilliant to watch back! Thanks once again for an amazing day.

Allan, The Wirral, UK: My trip to Splat HQ was all down to me girlfriend and our kids, they say I am vain and cocky and I needed to face a Custom Gold Tier experience with two Splat Storms, having watched the Mitchell Storm I thought bring it on.  The day came and on arrival Pete quickly introduced himself and showed me the infamous gunge tank.  To say the first Splat Storm consisted of six-eight minutes of total destruction of my favourite rugby kit was an understatement, then came the second Splat Storm where I wore a Man United kit a team I hate and this Storm was even worse but I didn`t mind.    Thanks Pete for a great day and for making a 10 and 8 year old girl and boy very happy. 

 

Julie, The Wirral, UK: The children and I have been wanting to get our back on my fella/their dad for ages so a trip to Splat HQ was called for.  We decided to go for a Custom Gold Tier experience as we wanted Allan to face not one Splat Storm but two, so we booked back in March this year for Allan to come to Splat HQ in August.  Pete got back to us within a few hours and agreed to our request to do two Splat Storms, Pete is fantastic with all the logistical side of things and was always there to provide advice right up to the day.   Then the day of Allan`s reckoning finally came, sadly, I couldn`t attend the session with Allan but we got it filmed and have been watching it over and over ever since.  The gunge used throughout was really think as there was so much of it and Pete even took before and after photos which Allan`s work colleagues have put up around his work place to remind him of his double Storm experience. Thank you, Pete for a great day even Allan surprisingly enjoyed it!   Don`t try anywhere else, you can’t beat Splat for a total gunge experience. 

 

Robin, Cambridgeshire UK: After admiring the Splat Show from afar for many years, I finally found the drive to book an Experience (gold tier) and I was not disappointed.

 

Pete is professional, brisk and thoroughly efficient at getting things set up with excellent communication both before and after the Experience – really good to know exactly what was happening and how things would go. We started with a quick chat and interview with me in the gunge tank, to put my mind to rest and ease me into the incredibly messy day ahead. Of course the interview concluded with my first taste of slop from above – far more brightly coloured warm slime than I was expecting! And if I was expecting to stay clean after that, I was clearly deluded. Despite apparently hanging on much longer than many other contestants in Lucky of Mucky and dodging the unlucky number many times, I finally lost the battle and my ‘reward’ was a tank of bright blue slime. The same pattern in True or False – my question skills were not up to the task but I was penalised for every wrong answer with a blast of gunge to the face… followed by evil-looking black slime – it looked I’d had a shower in crude oil!

 

Then came the Splat Storm. I won’t even try and describe it other than to say that it felt like the messiest thing I have ever experienced… about halfway through. And then it just got messier and messier and messier… It was totally overwhelming and way way too much but in a really good way. I couldn’t stop giggling. All too soon, the day came to an end, finishing off with a tension-laden quiz to get closest to the right answers (and another slime drop) and the grand finale of the goodbye chat and the final sliming with the extra extra thick gunge. Red, blue, black, purple – I even got to experience glittery sparkly gunge!

 

Overall, an absolutely great day out and a total slice of the surreal. You’ll walk out thinking “Did that really happen? Did I just imagine that?”. Then you’ll look back at the video and realise that it did. Six times. And that it was awesome.

Sean, USA: “When I finalized going to the UK, one of the first things I booked was the Splat Private Experience and it was worth every penny!  Living out my childhood dream finally becoming a reality.  Pete was very helpful every step of the way and was very informative and prompt.  He made me feel more comfortable with each gunging.  100% will be doing this again when I come visit the UK next time.  Book today!!!”.

Pete From Scotland: “After considering it for a long time I finally managed to book a seat in the Splat! Show gunge tank for a private experience. I went for the gold package to get the full experience and it didn’t disappoint. The initial nerves soon faded after the first gunging and I got into the swing of it, although my general knowledge could definitely be better, safe to say I got very messy very quickly. The highlight for me was the Splat! Storm, Pete did a great job of making sure I was completely covered which looks great on the video. If you are thinking about booking then just do it, you won’t regret it. It was a lot of fun and I hope to be back for another round one day.”

Lee, Essex UK:“I had a great time on my private splat show. I had seen the experiences on the website and was toying with the idea for a while, but I’m glad I went ahead and booked it. I went straight in for gold tier, despite having never done anything like this before, so it was definitely quite an experience for me”.

Pete was a real gent straight from the start, booking was an easy and friendly process.

The day itself was brilliant. Pete clearly puts a lot of effort into the experiences including before and after you arrive. The games are good fun, and made the day quite unpredictable. I seemed to do well on the quiz questions during the lucky or mucky round, but managed to find the unlucky number very quickly when I got them wrong. I actually won the pie quiz round but obviously still ended up getting gunged, and everything seemed to go downhill for me from there! Pete took great pleasure turning me into a ‘work of art’, in his words, during the splat storm, which was one of the highlights of the day, before the last quiz which I failed miserably at.

By the time I was home Pete had already sent me some pictures of a barely recogniseable me, and the video was sent to me within hours. It looks great and I’m glad I opted to have it filmed, as I definitely couldn’t see what was happening while I was being gunged, pied, splatted and whatnot.

Thank you for an awesome day, definitely a fun and unique experience and I’m sure I’ll be back!”

Adam, Kent UK: I have wanted to be gunged most of my  life ,ever since I was 7 or 8.

Never thought I would be possible as thought that it only happened on TV shows and I was never going to make it on to one of those.

 

After coming out of lockdown I realised that just how much I need to start doing the things I have always wanted to do and then last year I came across a splatette clip on YouTube which made me go straight to the site and it was here that I came across the private splat experiences.

 

After getting in contact with Pete for the first time he was really quick to respond and as the time that I wanted to book the experience for drew nearer I agreed a date with Pete by looking at the easy to use available dates section of the website and was able to Pay easily. 

 

Pete then sent me a detailed email explaining everything about the forthcoming day of my experience from the location,  to the times ,to what I needed to bring with me. In the email it stated that clothing would be provided and that there would also be a private bathroom so I could shower and change after the experience .

 

When the day arrived Pete kept me up to date via txt about the preparation that he was doing ready for my arrival. 

 

I arrived a bit early at the location so when I was waiting my nerves kicked in and I began to wonder if I had done the right thing but then then Pete called me in and I so regained my confidence. 

 

Before beginning Pete showed me the bathroom and the huge selection of outfits that I would be able to choose from. He then showed me the studio and the tank.

 

When getting changed I was delighted to find that I was able to wear the same outfit as my favourite splattete .

 

The experience was every bit as good as I had hoped for and more. Pete filmed it at no extra cost and did an interview with me first.

Then came the big moment, I was gunged in a nice white and purple and the gunge was warm which made the experience so enjoyable. 

 

After the experience Pete sent me the video for me to download which I really enjoyed watching. 

 

To anyone like me who has a lifelong ambition to be gunged I highly recommended Pete and an experience,  you most certainly won’t regret it.

 

Dave, England, UK: I was really nervous before booking and upon arrival for my experience, but throughout Pete really put me at ease, and is a fantastic host who really can’t do enough for you. The quality of the gunge was fantastic, really thick and really colorful. If you’re debating whether to do this, I was the same for a long time, but I can honestly say its one of the best things you’ll ever experience. Thanks Pete!

 

Heres to many more series of the splat show!

Andy, London, England, UK:ALL I CAN SAY IS BOOK AN EXPERIENCE! 

I’ve been a long time gunge fan and experienced my first time in a real gunge tank and it was worth every penny.  I booked “gold” wanting multiple tankings along the way and at no point was I disappointed. 

The initial drop the tank gives you has to be experienced & the following games add to the fun of the day.

The game element of the experience is exactly as viewers of the show watch, so it’s like being an actual contestant. 

Pete is OUTSTANDING from start to finish.  He puts guests at ease, explains everything, is accommodating to game requests or particular specifications and looks after the well-being of splat show fans from the start to the end of their experience. 

I can’t emphasise enough how any gunge fan needs to go along for a great day out.  I’m already looking at dates for a return trip to the tank.  Thank you Pete for an amazing experience and all the hard work and effort you put into running The Splat Show.

Adam, UK:“The SplatHQ Gold Tier experience was exactly that. I had a great time. Pete’s organisation and work meant the whole experience was a joy, all be it a very messy joy!!!! My first time in a gunge tank and I’m quite sure it won’t be my last!! Highly recommend this for a fun and extremely gungey time!!”

Paul and Martin, UK: Thanks for a brilliant first Splat! experience,  we both really really enjoyed it,  you made the whole thing really relaxed,  fun and enjoyable,  we’ve not stopped laughing yet!

Looking forward coming back to see you soon for another fantastic experience. 

Matt, UK: “Taking the messy plunge on a splat show experience was such an epic decision. I’d never been in a gunge tank before and even though I was both excited and a little nervous, Pete did such a good job in creating a relaxed and easy atmosphere. He was also amazing in tailoring the experience and helping to set up great messy games that we haven’t seen on the show in a while. He put so much care into creating a memorable and fun filled experience.

I’m definitely going to find some time to come back for a return visit and I’d recommend it with bells on.

Jack D from England: “I’d always been interested in gunge since I was a kid, so I decided to book a Gold Experience with Splat HQ. The experience was exactly like the shows and so much fun. The gunge was nice and warm and really thick, so it felt really authentic and I just knew it would look good on the camera. Pete was really friendly too, chatting between sets making me feel really at ease as well. Could not recommend more to anyone who is interested!”

 

Ste & Em From England:“Having been a gungetank fan for many years an experience like the Gold Tier was very much a bucket list event. And boy did our experience live up to and surpass all expectations. Pete was a brilliant host and made both me & my partner really relaxed and at ease as soon as we arrived to take on the tank. We had such a great time and have loved rewatching the recording. We will be back again for another round of Splat because this truly was one of the best and most fun things we’ve ever done in our lives”.

David From USA: As a fan of the show for many years I’ve always wondered what it would be like to experience it for myself, However living in the U.S. presented its own challenges because I would need to plan a trip to the U.K. After a delay of around 2 years due to covid I was finally able to start planning and I ordered the custom gold experience to have the full show and Splat Storm. It did not disappoint. Pete was very nice and professional throughout, and in the days leading up to the experience he also gave me all the details I needed to know before coming, and as such, the process is very easy. It was great not to have to worry about anything and just have fun. He lets you know what to expect and does his best to make you feel comfortable. I was also able to choose from a bunch of the different outfits that have been on the show over the years, The entire thing was a blast, pun intended, and because of how good a job Pete did of getting me ready I wasn’t nervous at all. He did everything in his power to give me a good time and get me as messy as possible.

The gunge was really warm, which was nice, and each game plus the tanking at the end of them got messier and messier. I got more progressively covered in gunge until it was time for the signature part of The Splat Show the Splat Storm. To say I wasn’t fully prepared for how messy it was would be an understatement. Not only was it the most intense gunging ever, it was completely overwhelming more so than anything I could have imagined. It was just so much gunge, the blasters were so powerful I couldn’t do anything other than sit there and take it, and I loved every second of it. After the storm ended and the gunge in the tank was released all over me I got so trashed, that I don’t think that even a single part of me was clean. I could barely even see, it took forever to get off, and the day still wasn’t done because there was still one more game left and I got even more covered in gunge, which was fantastic. 

Even though the whole thing ended up being 4 hours, the experience still felt like it passed by in the blink of an eye and it was one of the most fun days I’ve had. Since I chose to have the experience filmed I got a fully edited episode of the show starring me to watch whenever I feel like. If anyone is at all nervous or unsure if they want to inquire about having your own private experience and even if you live somewhere much further away like in the United States, just take the plunge and do it. I did and had such a wonderful time I’m already contemplating another trip just to come and do it again.

Adam, Suffolk: Nothing prepares for you for when you walk into the room and see the Splat! Gunge tank. Pete was incredible from start to finish in the planning our custom event and made us feel so welcome at ease on the day. We truly hope to return in the future! 

Andy from Birmingham: Gold experience is exactly what you get on the shows. A very warm welcome to the tank after talking about gameshows of old what had encouraged me to go for the splat experience. Pete’s hard work was much appreciated. Very good communication from Pete from initial booking to revisiting my experience from his well edited recording…Would highly recommend if you want to be on your own show. 

 had many smiles on my face while getting splatted!

What you waiting for? Don’t get gunged, get splatted!

Paul from London: My Splat Show Gold Experience was amazing! Pete was reassuring and thorough in the run-up to the day itself. He took care to answer all my questions about practicalities, privacy, and making the whole experience covid-safe. As for the day itself – well, sitting in a gunge tank and getting splatted is definitely a fun and unique experience. Especially when it happens multiple times! The gunge was plentiful, thick, and surprisingly warm. Throughout, Pete put me at my ease while making sure I was safe. If you’ve ever wanted to try getting gunged, a Splat private experience is strongly recommended.

Bob, Wales, UK: Despite being a gunge fan for years, I was so nervous when arriving at Splat. Pete was great, welcoming and calming. At least until I took a seat in the infamous tank! The gunge was thick, colourful and plentiful while I was completely covered time and time again. I was good at the games, getting cocky despite knowing exactly what was going to happen. A great day all round, highly recommended.

Zak From Wales:I had an excellent time participating in my own Splat! Show, and not just because of the incredible amount of gunge thrown my way! Pete was very professional but still easy to chat with and it was very interesting to see how the whole operation is run.

MJ From Sussex, UK: ‘I’d been wanting to get in a gunge tank for ages and finally plucked up the courage to book it with Splat as a post lockdown treat. All I can say is I truly enjoyed every moment of it and would recommend it åto anyone who wants to be covered in endless gunge

Andy From The Midlands: “With a miserable 18 months finally behind us, I’d decided that the remainder of 2021 was going to be all about seizing the day, and high on the list was a private Splat! Session. Gunge for me has mainly been a solo thing, usually involving various foodstuffs, so this would be my first time experiencing ‘proper’ gunge, as well as a gunge tank itself, and someone else dishing out the mess!

The now-legendary Pete has the whole operation off to a tee. Everything was ready to go when I arrived (even just seeing the numerous buckets of gunge in the corner waiting for me was so exciting!), and I was quickly getting changed ready for my first game. I’d chosen to wear my own clothes for some of the games (experiencing the Splat! Storm in a full suit and tie was simply amazing!) but I also loved the opportunity to rummage through the ‘dressing up box’ of the various outfits made famous by the Splat! Models, choosing something to wear.

Proceedings began, and we had a real laugh as we worked through each of the games, with pie after pie being thrown at me, the (upgraded) gunge blaster aimed right in my face, and of course, some amazing tankings in between! (Oh, and don’t worry about how good or bad you’ll do at each of the games – Pete will always make sure you get the result you want!)

All too soon, I’d played my final game, and so after a final annihilation in the Splat! Storm, it was time to head home (still with a bit of gunge behind my ear, and the feint smell of custard in my nose). But I was able to relive it all again the following day when my video arrived (superbly edited to the same standard as the commercial videos) – the perfect memento of a truly amazing experience!”

Jamie From Scotland” “A personal Splat! show is just such a special treat. Peter really does everything to put you at your ease. It’s amazing fun and everything you’d expect it to be.” 

BRENDAN FROM DERBY UK” I had a fantastic time during my Splat gold tier experience. Pete is a brilliant host. He is very professional, very easy to talk to and made the whole day a complete pleasure. I was incredibly nervous when I initially arrived and got into the tank for the first time but after my first gunging, I was raring to keep going back for more. The games and quizzes were really fun and the gunge felt amazing. It was everything I hoped for and more. I will 100% be going back in the future and I would hugely recommend it to everyone.”

Tom From London:I thought I knew what to expect with my second Splat private experience but Pete pulled out all the stops to ensure I had yet another memorable day in the gunge tank. I even got to try out some brand new games and got absolutely trashed in some new colours of gunge too. Thanks again for an awesome day and see you next time!

Tony From London – “If you are looking for a gunge tank experience then look no further than SPLAT you won’t be disappointed. I went for the gold package and it was perfect everything was planned before I arrived and I couldn’t stop laughing (although this was difficult at times due to the amount of gunge). 

If you going to experience the tank you have to go for the storm the gunge is relentless and your only break is a few seconds before the tank drops. I went for it being recorded and the quality is fantastic it truly is your own show but importantly its Private”

David From Scotland – “After arriving at Splat! HQ, Pete and James relieved any apprehension I had. The guys were professional and the session was easy-going and a lot of fun. The quality and quantity of gunge is superb and my first experience of being in a gunge tank is something I’ll never forget. I’d absolutely recommend the experience to any fan and look forward to making a return visit in the future.”

Steve from Yorkshire – “Having viewed the Splat pages for 15 years (can you believe its 15 years of Splat handing out the gungings!) I noticed David had experienced a private session in that famous Splat gunge tank. The thought of sitting in there where models have come and gone and been slimed was too good an opportunity to miss and great you can experience a gunging in a tank in private like this. Pete is fabulous in the communication leading up to organising this and a great guy on the day, making sure everything is perfect and ensuring you are OK with everything. The build up sitting at the side of the tank, then the moment he tells you to step inside is out of this world… sitting there chatting, occasional drips of the goo above hitting your head, then when the trigger is pulled, gallons of the gunky stuff absolutely cover you. I opted by the bronze package which is just one gunging, this experience was awesome and out of this world, my only regret now is not taking the other packages and repeating this over again. I’ll be back for more. This was something off the bucket list, so if you have ever wondered what it is like, get booked now, and you will not be disappointed. Thanks again to Pete the host, a superb guy, sent the video and some pics so soon after, and I urge any gunge fans to give this a go.”

Neil From London -“I had a great time with the guys of Splat! for a private experience; five separate gungings, sometimes my own clothes, sometimes the well-worn famous clothes from the shows too.  Lots of humour and laughter and LOTS of gunge.  Time flew by and I’ve never had so many showers in such a short space of time!  I recommend it to any guys who have enjoyed the shows…..”

Richard From Yorkshire: “I have seen a few of the Splatette shows & have really enjoyed them, so the opportunity to experience the show for myself was something that was really appealing.

I opted for the Full Gameshow, followed by the Splat Storm after,

It was such a great experience being able to sit inside the tank & experience what so many others have before. This included the famous outfits that have become popular on the show, the countless wrong answers leading to a messy ending & then finally get the vast amount of gunge dropped on you from the tank above.

The colours of the gunge were fantastic.

After experiencing the countless sprayings & throwings of gunge as part of the quizzes & the inevitable tanking at the end of each round it was the end of the show.

Now onto the part I was looking forward to the most, the Splat Storm. There are no other words to say that what an amazing experience this was. To sit there & face a complete onslaught of gunge is something I would crave for each & everyday. If it was possible to have this happen each day then I would happily take a seat in the tank & face it.

To anyone who is contemplating having a session & are not sure what to expect, I would highly recommend that you take the opportunity at this as you won’t be disappointed.”

Paul From Essex: “Thanks for the experience yesterday, it was a great afternoon! And thanks for all the work you put into it. It was a top notch job! I will certainly be back, you guys really are the best around BY FAR!”

Kristian From England: “I decided to take the plunge for my first gunging experience with the Splat! crew, given the great shows they’ve made in the past and their great reputation for good quality gunge and games. I went for the full on Gold experience, with five gungings and the final Splat! storm. Although I was a little nervous on the way, Pete and James were very welcoming and I felt very at ease, and the hours just flew by. I didn’t opt for filming, so it meant they could be a bit more forthcoming with the messy chaos, and needless to say after all the gungings and the Splat! storm it took a while to get the gunge out of my hair! I absolutely reccommend all gunge fans to book one of Splat!’s packages.” 

Andy From The Midlands: “I went for the Gold package and it was a great choice. Although a “gunger” with some experience, I had to admit to being a little nervous, finally seeing SplatHQ from the other side (inside the tank!). Pete was great and quickly made me feel at home in the tank with a welcome interview and a nice warm gunging in a Splat T-Shirt and some shorts to kick things off. 

A variety of fun games and quizzes followed, most of which, of course, I lost, being gunged in various ”Splat wear”, Including singlets, trunks and the very recognisable “scuba suit” which was very ruthlessly pied when I got wrong answers and gunked with red gunge when the tank was unleashed! I found I wasn’t too bad at the general knowledge and actually won one game; you can guess what my prize was!

Pete worked hard preparing massive amounts of gunge and to say I was well covered every time barely describes it! Then there was the very awesome Splat Storm, and let me tell you, storm is an accurate description! The most intense, relentless deluge I have ever known, well worth it if you are considering the Gold option.“

David From London: “From start to finish I had an amazing experience with the guys at SplatHQ. Everything was personalised for me with more gunge than I ever imagined, great games and quite a few surprises. The Splat Storm was magnificent and definitely worth going for, there was no escape!”

Rob From New York, USA: “I had an awesome time at my Splat! experience.  I was made to feel very comfortable and relaxed, everything was super chill and taken care of, and all my requests taken into account.  It was so fun to finally sit in the tank I’ve seen in so many videos and feel tons and tons of gunge pouring down on me.  And the video turned out amazing!  Perhaps the best part is not having to set anything up or clean anything up — just arrive, play some games, shower and go!  Super easy train ride from London to Splat! HQ.  I highly recommend this experience and I will probably be back again!”

Jonathan From London: A brilliant day at the Splat Show – it was everything that it promised to be and everything that I was hoping it would be. Like some others, I was a bit apprehensive as I arrived, but that disappeared pretty much immediately:  the whole experience is so well organised and delivered, and Pete so easy to get on with, that all I needed to do was relax and enjoy it – and I did!  Sign up – you’ll have a great time.
